Recs if you like The Awakening...

it’s bisexual+ awareness week!!!!!! love to see representation in romance books and here’s a collection of them!! whether you’re a member or an ally, everyone is welcome 🫶

"He is literally just a guy. Hit him with your car."

AKA, a selection of "book boyfriends" that actually suck. Featuring red flags ranging from an emotionally unavailable Irish lad to a man who locks up his wife in an attic.

Recommendations welcome. No judgment if you enjoy these books; this list was inspired by my own obsession with Heathcliff, toxic lover extraordinaire, as a teen.

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

When the love story and the world building go hand in claw. For series, only the first book is listed.

Books where someone, at some point, lets out a breath they didn’t know they were holding. I fully intend to update this every time I come across this line, but let me know which ones are missing in the comments!

a list of fantasy book recs free of problematic authors so you can discover without any stress of promoting them!

This list is dedicated to the couples who crossed the line only after they actively tried to murder each other. The stakes here are life-or-death, not simple "rivalry" or "bullying". When I say enemies, I mean literally lethal. I'm always looking to add more bodies to this pile - please feel free to share your hit lists with me!

Suggestions are always welcome! Co-authored books in any genre (i.e. books that were written by at least two authors, either listed under one pen name or credited individually).

Romantasy books to read to escape reality that AREN’T ACOTAR and Fourth Wing.

I know there are a couple other dragon lists out there, but a lot of them were missing some of my favourites, so I'm just making my own!

These books the dragons will play a significant role in the plot, even if the focus of the book isn't dragons themselves (like the Hobbit).

For books in a series, I'll only be adding the first one.

Feel free to drop suggestions! I'm trying to include all the dragon books I can.

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

I think Pagebound quests should be enjoyed at your own pace, reading whatever piques your interest. That being said, here's a list of books that are included in multiple quests. This list is a work in progress and suggestions are welcome :)

Full Reading Order (Including: Zodiac Academy, Ruthless Boys, Darkmore Penitentiary + Novellas)

PS: You can also read a Prequel Novella called Savage, included in Live & Let Lionel #8.6, after Heartless Sky #7

PPS: ZA #8 and ZA #8.5 are best read in tandem!

Note to all readers: The stars have dictated this reading order for your safety. Failure to follow may result in severe spoilers. Fate-induced trauma and unplanned binge-reading won’t be accepted as valid excuses for lost sleep.

Cult classics, guilty pleasures, popcorn reads, addictive stories in dire need of an editor, just some good old fun — these are books with an average enjoyment rating that is at least 0.5 stars higher than the average quality rating. This is a purely objective criterion and doesn’t necessarily reflect my personal opinion on quality or enjoyment of these books. Suggestions welcome! Please also inform me when I messed up the math/the ratings changed, that’s bound to happen sooner or later.

these are pulled from a goodreads list that was published--working on trying to find the link again

Just gathering amazing authors that sit down to write in Europe (EU or not) and hopefully get some recs from you 🥰

Wolves and cryptids and bears, oh my: shifter lovers step right up! Looking for a himbo in the streets and a dinosaur in the sheets? What about a lady by day and a kinky werewolf by night? This is the list for you!

Slide into these romance + erotica books with monsters, aliens, and paranormal shifters of all stripes. Recs include omegaverse, fated mates, variety of relationship pairings (sapphic, MM, MF, etc), and spice hot enough to melt your panties off.🔥

I will list the first book in the series and the upcoming book. Updates once a month.

(I'm already questioning my sanity on how I'm going to maintain this, I wish we could make collaborative lists on here 😭)

where each narrator voices their own character(s) throughout the entire book, not just when it’s ‘their’ chapter

It’s what it says on the tin: romance & erotica with hot, horny dragons. 🐉

NOTE: Main characters and/or love interests are literal dragons! Open to recs.
